I thought I read somewhere that the floor pans from a box caprice are the same as the 91-96, any truth in that? I guess the real question is will a carpet from a box fit into a newer model? (not worried about the kick panels, just that it fits from sill to sill.

Thoughts????

What kind of measurements do you need?

I've got a brand new black carpet for a box chevy I was building. If I will fit a 91-96 I'm use it instead of ordering a new one for the wagon. I just need to know from sill to sill anf maybe from back seat to under the dash around where the heater vent is. Ball park numbers. If no one has an answer I gonna gut it and find out myself.

Well the floor pans are the same on a sedan. I am not sure if the box wagons are the same. Plus you have to remember a wagon gets wider as it goes towards the rear.

That just means they make carpets for Caprices years 66'96. Not that they're the same.

I wanna say the wagon is the same as sedan 91-96 because I saw one on eBay and it said sedan/wagon. I dint care about the box wagon really, I have a carpet from an 86 that never got used. If I can make it work I will and save $150. Maybe I'll do a little chopping of the Buick this week to find out. And thanks Ted i'll check that link out!

I believe that Pat on the longroof forum said 77-96 wagons and sedans used the same carpeting.

All 77-96 sedan and wagon share the same floor pans. Period.

D-bodys are longer.
